Philosophies of Difference engages with the concept of difference
in relation to a number of fundamental philosophical and political
problems. Insisting on the inseparability of ontology, ethics and
politics, the essays and interview in this volume offer original
and timely approaches to thinking nature, sexuate difference,
racism, and decoloniality. The collection draws on a range of
sources, including Latin American Indigenous ontologies and
philosophers such as Henri Bergson, Jacques Derrida, Luce Irigaray,
Immanuel Kant, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Charles Mills, and Eduardo
Viveiros de Castro. The contributors think embodiment and life by
bringing continental philosophy into generative dialogue with
fields including plant studies, animal studies, decoloniality,
feminist theory, philosophy of race, and law. Affirming the
importance of interdisciplinarity, Philosophies of Difference
contributes to a creative and critical intervention into
established norms, limits, and categories. Invoking a conception of
difference as both constitutive and generative, this collection
offers new and important insights into how a rethinking of
difference may ground new and more ethical modes of being and
being-with. Philosophies of Difference unearths the constructive
possibilities of difference for an ethics of relationality, and for
elaborating non-anthropocentric sociality. The chapters in this
book were originally published in a special issue in Australian
Feminist Law Journal.
